How about a day where the composer queue lock gets turned off? That day, you can request any track from any composer regardless if they're in the queue._________________I do not wake up with thoughts of control and rebellion, but thoughts of purpose and righteousness and the empowerment to fulfill those convictions that define me.

Is there any way you could maybe post a sticky forum post with a quick reference of the relevant DMCA rules?

The Request Rules on the request page are derived from the DMCA rules:

* You may not request any artist that is already in the queue.
* You may not request any album that is already in the queue.
* The queue always runs at a minimum of an hour to enforce not being able to hear your request within 1 hour.

You can also try to decipher the DMCA itself, but then I wish you good luck Seriously, you will find similar rules on all webradios that comply to the DMCA.

When the DMCA rules first went in everyone here was very upset and frustrated. However, we quickly discovered the advantage was that more variety was requested. It may seem frustrating to you if you really like one composer, but there is so much you can be introduced to here. I discovered Joe Hisaishi and E S Posthumus. Where else would I have had such an opportunity?!
